Dusty is my husband
29

My breath roared upon arrival in the car. By looking at the former mother-in-law, it was as if I saw the film slide play out clearly before my eyes.

" Tika. Don't let emotions rule you. You're too precious, baby." Reno's hand rubbed against the back of my hand so gently. Able to neutralize my marahan.

I stared at the shady face of Reno, who was smiling gently. He was always able to heal my heart. Support my soul to always rise up.

If only God hadn't sent him to protect me. Somehow my life now.

" I know, you must be stronger than this, baby."

Back that burly hand was my red in his arms.

" Thank you, yes" I untied Reno's embrace.

"Aughk.." My screams suddenly withstood the pain. Reno was surprised to hear me complaining of pain. Again the fetus in my stomach kicked hard.

"What's up Tika, you're okay, right?" I rubbed my stomach gently. Every time I feel anxious or my emotions are not unstable the baby in my womb must react.

As if to remind or did he feel as well as I felt.

" I'm fine. The baby's playing ball again" my ringis.

" Okay, the boy papah hard times yes. Patience, dear, let's meet again, "reno's reflexes rubbed my stomach.

Strange, the baby in my womb stopped mene

nambo. He calmed back down as if enjoying a jemari sweep, Reno.

"Thank you, you calmed him down in there. You are not his biological father. Maybe he feels your love too.

Whenever I feel anxious, he must react. As if looking for attention so that you also calm her down." Tika's heart monologue was full of hariu.

Bu Hesti was still silently staring at the departure of Tika and Reno. He was struck by the reaction of Tika who did not care about him.

He deserves that treatment. After what he did to his daughter-in-law.

" He didn't expect to see Tika. That means they still live in one city. Where he lives.

Isn't the house he sold?

Rey, who had just entered the cafe, was very surprised to see her mother who stood looking.

He followed the direction of his mother. But all it looks like is passing people and vehicles out there.

" Mommy why, what do you see?" the voice surprised Hesti, his mother.

" Egh, ta.tadi I saw Tika. They just got out of here."

"These? Mama must've seen it wrong." Since they divorced, Rey hasn't met Tika and Nadia.

Let alone meet, hear the news not. Even though he was hunting for information. He never found it. That's why he thinks Tika must have moved.

How would she believe the words of her mother who saw, Tika's whereabouts.

Their mother said, meaning Tika was not alone.

" Mama sure just saw 'Tika. Who was he with. Nadia huh?"

" No, he's with a guy. He seems familiar. And Tika is pregnant, old. Is Tika married?" cecar bu Hesti without reply.

"Alright, Ma. Stop that!" snapped Rey. Her mother would not have stopped talking to herself, had she not been snapped.

Since the incident a few months ago. When Tika with her anger that threatened to throw us into prison has changed your life as if pursued by a shadow of fear.

Bu Hesti was instantly speechless hearing a loud voice, Rey. There was clear water reminiscing in the corner of his eyes.

Rey led her mother to a chair. Rey parked her motorcycle and let her mama walk first into the cafe. That's why he didn't see Tika and Reno.

Reno asks the cafe waitress if she has a cctv. Rey was very curious about her mother's words.

After persuading and lying, the cafe owner allows Rey to check the cctv footage.

" So they're married? Rey smiled cunningly. His grudge against his ex-wife who has ruined his life, is back on fire.

" I can't get close to you, Tika. But that doesn't mean you can't break it with that lawyer" he growled.

Upon seeing the cctv, Rey feels that Tika and Reno conspired to bring it down. It's not impossible that Tika also cheated all this time.

" Hem, yell at the maling, you're really cunning Tika!"

***

A month later, at a maternity Hospital.

Reno and his family, there's also bi Risma. Waiting anxiously at the door of the delivery room.

At dawn at about 4;15, Reno received Tika's call. That her stomach hurt. Reno rushes her car to Tika's house.

Along the way, Reno was already very nervous. Fortunately the road was not crowded, so within ten minutes Reno had arrived.

Hurry up to find Tika. Who was ready with Rita. Nadia is still asleep.

" How are you, Tika. Let's go soon." Reno once suggested that Tika surgery alone during childbirth. But Tika refused.

Despite having to experience the pain of contractions, Tika prefers to give birth normally.

"I'm fine, even though he's been playing ball constantly" said Tika smiling, trying to melt Reno's astonishment. Reno pushed Tika into the car, leading her to sit with her heart. Then put on the seat belt.

After making sure everything was fine, Reno drove off her car, splitting the highway wet with morning dew.

Tika had been in that room for almost an hour. But neither did Tika give birth.

Occasional moans of Tika's pain as contractions sounded out of the room. Reno's sweat has been pouring out since. His mouth does not pray.

He sat down for a moment, standing up for a moment. And then, so keep going back and forth.

Suddenly the door opened, all of them looking at the doctor who came out.

" How are Tika and her baby doctor?"

exclaimed Reno was unable to hide her golden.

"Tika is fine. You're Mr Reno, huh?"

" Yes, I'm Reno,"

" You better come inside. Accompanying Tika's mother,"

" Sa.my doc?" Reno's getting nervous.

" Come in, kid. You need to calm down, Tika needs you inside." said Ms. Nita to calm her son's heart.

The experience of losing his wife during childbirth, makes Reno always anxious excessively.

Finally Reno followed the steps of the doctor into the delivery room. Reno looked at the face of Tika who was in pain during the contraction.

Seeing Reno's presence, Tika tried to smile. Reno immediately wiped the sweat on Tika's face. Pecking the top of his head.

" You have to be strong, baby, you can." Reno clasped Tika's hand, giving strength. Tika pressed deeper, until her breath was cut off. But the baby is not yet nongol.

" Bang you are talking dong, it looks like he is looking for your attention," whispered Tika lirih. Reno gawked at the words.

"Honey, you're out dong. Playing the ball is enough in there. Come on, play the same ball. Mamah was tired, not stuffy there continue," Reno rubbed Tika's stomach, even kissing her full of tenderness. It was as if the baby that would see the sparkling of this world was his own flesh and blood.

Almost Tika did not hear Reno's caracau, which he thought was a gokil. But suddenly his stomach hurt a lot.

The doctor ordered Tika to push. Take a deep breath and let it out with full pressure.

Unknowingly, Tika grabbed Reno by the neck. Until Reno's body becomes the focus of his strength.

Aghkc....Tika screamed and along with that, Tika felt like there was a push out of her womb. ******
